The Analysis window

The Analysis window is home to all your scans, explorations, portfolio backtests, optimizations, walk-forward tests and Monte Carlo simulation

Screen markets for opportunities

Exploration is multi-purpose screening/data mining tool that produces fully programmable tabular output with unlimited number of rows and columns from all symbols data

Test your system

The Backtest allows to test your system performance on historical data. The simulation is performed on portfolio-level as in real-life, with multiple securities traded at the same time, each having user-definable position sizing rule.

Scoring & ranking

If multiple entry signals occur on the same bar and you run out of buying power, AmiBroker performs bar-by-bar ranking based on user-definable position score to find preferable trade.

Find optimum parameter values

Tell AmiBroker to try thousands of different parameter combinations to find best-performing ones. Use Smart Artificial Intelligence Optimization (Particle Swarm and CMA-ES) to search huge spaces in limited time.

Walk-forward testing

Don’t fall into over-fitting trap. Validate robustness of your system by checking its Out-of-Sample performance after In-Sample optimization process.

Monte Carlo Simulation

Prepare yourself for difficult market conditions. Check worst-case scenarios and probability of ruin. Take insight into statistical properties of your trading system
